Advantages Linking computer to tv and all in 1 music and video
Disadvantages Setup

...Start over again, hopefully this review will be better for you and more information. I have the pinnacle showcenter 200 which cost £175, and for what it can do is worth it. There are two parts to the showcenter, you have the silver box and remote. There are no buttons on the silver box which will connect to you tv or hifi simply connect using a scart lead or Composite and Y/C (S-Video) outputs. There are optical or phono connections for audio if you wanted to connet to your hifi. The other part of the package is the software which will be loaded on your pc, This will search for all compatiable media types and tag them so you can select to play them on your tv usng the showcenter box.

Then how about box contents, well in the box you get a wifi dongle which you connect to the back of the showcenter 200 to establish a signal for wireless connectivity, you also get a 3 metre ethernet...
